Why Does the Muslim World Lag in Science?

[Skull and Bones]

To achieve in science, the first thing should be to gather enough courage to say, 'i don't know'.

 

[OCguy]

Certain parts of science asks one to question their faith in what they believe to be true. This is not easy for countries who are still very traditional in their values (not to say there is anything wrong with that).

To say that this speaks to the intelligence of any culture or religion is ludicrous. Every developed or developing country in the world embraces science on a daily basis, even if they don't realize it. That doesn't mean they embrace the elements or disciplines of science that contradict religious teachings.

Great point mate we should instead focus on technology

Technology is the baby of science.

You cannot have technology without science. Now, that doesn't mean you have to understand the science in order to take advantage of technology.

But without a well funded scientific community, as well as a purpose for research, (war is the biggest driver of new technology) it is very difficult to discover or create new technology.
